ALBAlsnr was known by the several Dutch names of 
Beaver-wyck Williamstadt and Fort Orange, 
chiefly by the latter. The lands immediately opposite to 
Albany, and for a distance along and from the river, the 
Dutch denoted as Het Greene Bosh, the pine tooods, cor- 
rupted to Greenbush. 

Albany city may be said to have been founded in 1612, by 
some Hollanders, and to have been, next to Jamestown, Va., 
the earliest European settlement within the primitive thirteen 
United States. A temporary fort was erected in 1614, and 
Fort Orange in 1623. By that name it was known until after 
the British conquest, in 1664, when it received the name of 
Albany from one of the titles of the Duke of York. 

The change of sovereignty which the colony of New Neth- 
erland underwent in 1664, necessarily interfered with the 
language as weU as the customs and manners of the people. 

The records continued, for twenty years after that event, 
to be written mostly in Dutch; but, in 1686, they were 
required to be kept in English. The Dutch was the oral lan- 
guage of the city for many years after. 

In 1629 a charter of liberties and exemptions for patroons, 
masters and private incttviduals who should plant colonies 
in New Netherland was granted by the States General of 
Holland. At the time tlie charter was gi-anted Albany pre- 
sented the appearance of a small town, with two principal 
sti-eets ci-ossing each other, in one of which was placed all 
the public buildings. (This no doubt accounts for the gi-eat 
width of State street.) It had a very rural appearance, each 
house having its garden and shade ti-ees. There were three 
docks, the lower, middle and upper ; the lower was caUed 
the king's dock. Vessels were unloaded by the aid of canoes 
lashed together, and having a platform built upon them 
where goods were placed. 

Under this charter, in August, 1630, Kilaen Van Rensselaer 
purchased through his agents a large tract of land, including 
most of this as well as several of the adjacent counties. In 
1631, he sent a colony and gave it the name of Rensselaer- 
Brown's liiiien Shirts, only $2.00 each at J no.

wyck, after changed to Beaverwick. In 1643 the first church 
was erected. Albany was fortified against the Indians by 
tlie Dutch Avith a stockade in 1645, and vestiges of the work 
remained until 1812. The city was incorporated by the 
Colonial Governor Dongan, in 1688, with an area one mile 
wide on the river, extending northwest to the north line of 
the manor of the Rensselaers, and retaining that width 
thirteen and a half miles. 

During the revolutionary war the city presented a singular 
appearance ; it was stockaded, had its north and south gates, 
was an important militaij post, and was commanded by the 
gallant Lafayette and Col. Van Schaick, a distinguished 
officer and a native of Albany. It was considered one of 
the most important stations in the United States. It was the 
key to the north and west, the point from which our armies 
threatened Montreal and Quebec. 

Albany nobly sustained their countrymen in their opposi- 
tion to British sway, and afforded aid in troops and money 
to the suffering inhabitants of Tyron county to assist them 
in repelling the frequent attacks of the mei-ciless hordes of 
Tories and Indians who ravaged that settlement. 

Burgoyne had boasted at the commencement of the cam- 

gaign that his army would revel upon the spoils of Albany, 
ut he only visited the city as a captive. Sir Henry Clinton 
twice attempted to invade but met with sufficient obstacles 
to prevent his success. It became the capitol of the State in 
1807. Its bounds were enlarged by addition of part of the 
smalltown of Colonic, 25th of February, 1815, which formerly 
formed the Fifth Ward; area 7160 acres. The city lies in 
42 deg. 39 min. 3 sec. N. Lat., and 30 deg. 12 min. E. Long, 
from Washington, and is distant from New York 142 miles, 
Boston 200 miles, and Buffalo 298 miles. 

The plat on Avhich the city lies is uneven, a low alluvial 
flat extends along the river from 15 to 100 rods wide, west of 
which rises a hill of clay and sand. In the one-half mile 
153 feet, and in the next about 67 feet high from the summit. 
The county is an even plain for miles. 

The city appears to great advantage from the river, rising 
rapidly from the bank, and exhibiting its public buildings in 
bold relief. The public buildings are many of them elegant 
and costly, and are fidly described in another part of this 
book. 

Smce the introduction of steamboats and the completion 
of canals, the growth of the citv and county has been rapid. 

The old portion of the city is not remarkable for the regu- 
larity of its streets, but the modern has more symmetery. In 
1845 the city had but 116 streets ; it uoav contains about ISO. 
The principal of which are State, Broadwav, North and 
South Pearl sti-eets and Washington avenue. 'The city con-

The people are prLacipally engaged in manufacturing and

Albany is the largest lumber market in the State. 

At the junction of the Erie canal with the Hudson river, 
the citizens have constructed an extensive basin to protect 
the boats from the winds and give the greater facilities for 
discharging their cargo. 

March 16th, 1870, the charter was amended enlarging its 
bounds by adding part of the towns of Bethlehem and Water- 
vliet, and increasing the number of wards from 10 to 16. 

From the above description a pretty clear idea can be 
formed of what Albany was in olden times. What Albany 
is now is told in the fixed facts which surround her. 

It was not then surrounded by six or seven raUroads, 
branching out in every direction and communicating with 
the most distant as well as the largest marts of trade, at the 
head of the navigation of the Hudson river, at the foot of the 
navigation of the Erie canal, thus forming a connecting link 
between the great West and the South and East, filled with 
manufacturing establishments of every kind, within a few 
hours ride of the great commercial emporium of the western 
world, and supplied with aU the modern facilities to aid and 
forward the requirements of trade and commerce. 

This is what Albany is now, and exhibits her as in the 
most flourishing condition.

STATE GEOLOGICAL AND AGBICULTUEAL 
HALL. 

This institution, located corner of State and Lodge streets* 
the site of the old State Hall, was erected in 1855, and opened 
to the public February 22, 1858. The building is of brick, 
four stories high, besides the basement. In the rear is a 
spacious wing, of the same height as the main building. It 
contains a lecture room, the spacious Geological Cabinet and 
the rooms of the State Geological Society. A series of 
English fossils have been given to the State by the British 
Government, and a valuable collection of shells, embracing 
several thousand species, has been recently presented and 
arranged by Philip P. Carpenter, an English naturalist. The 
Museum is designed to embrace a complete representation 
of the geological formations of the State, with their ac- 
conipaning minerals and fossils. The birds and quadrupeds 
are preserved by a skillful taxidermist, with the attitude and 
appearance of life; and the reptiles and fishes are princi- 
pally preserved in alcohol. Connected with this Cabinet is 
a historical and antiquarian department, embi-acing numer- 
ous aboriginal antiquities of specimens of modern Indian 
art, relics of battle fields, and other object of historical inter- 
est. The museum of the State Agricultural Society, in a 
separate department of the building, contains a large collec- 
tions of obsolete and modern implements of husbandry, 
specimens of agi-icultural and mechanical products, models 
of fruits, samples of grains, drawings illustrating subjects 
connected with the useful arts, and it is designed to include 
an extensive collection of insects, made with special refer- 
ence to showing their influence on fi-uit and grain crops of 
the State. 

The whole of these collections are opened free to the pub- 
lic on every week day, except holidays, from 9 A. M. until 5

THE BTJIIEAU OP MILITARY STATISTICS. 

This institution, located at 219 State street, contains flags, 
trophies and relics relating to the Revolution, the "War of 
1812, the Mexican War and the late Rebellion, forming the 
most complete and interesting collection ever brought 
together in the United States. The most deeply interesting 
objects perhaps are the numerous regimental flags which 
have been carried by our brave volunteers upon so many 
bloody battle fields during the late rebellion. There are also 
deposited many emblems of various kinds captured from the 
rebels by New York regiments. Inscribed on these banners 
are the names of the battles in which the regiments were

as seventy different inscriptions. These sad memorials of 
the brave dead who have fallen in the cause of liberty must 
ever be venerated by those who love their country and 
sympathized with it m its gigantic struggle for freedom. 
There are also many oil paintings, photogi-aphs, engravings

cluding the Laws, Journals and Documents of every State 
in the Union. 

The General Library, in the upper stoi*y, contains about 
60,000 volumes. The average annual rate of increase is 
about 2,500 volumes, by means of appropriations from the 
Legislature, donations and exchanges. Among the objects 
of especial interest contained in it, may be mentioned oil 
paintings and busts of Governors of .the State, and other dis- 
tinguished citizens; collections of coins, medals and en- 
gi-avings; the September Emancipation proclamation of

STREET DIRECTORY, 



The aim of the Street Directory is to give the location of 
each Street, and show what other Street or Place runs from 
or across it with the number at which they intersect. By its 
aid any person, even a stranger, can go to any numbered 
house without unnecessary travel. 

From this List the location of any number on a Street can 
be easily ascertained. For instance, you wish to know at 
what part of Washington avenue 298 would come, you look 
for Washington avenue, and find that Knox crosses at 260 
lett, and Snipe at 310 left, so that 298 would be the sixth 
house from Snipe on the left hand side.

J. A. FREMIRE, Agent. 




MUTUAL llF[lll$URAIIC[ClPlliY 

OF NEW YORK. 

J. A. FREMIEE, Agt., 444 Broadway, 

We would advise our friends and the public, and all those who 
anticipate and desire to insure in a good and reliable Company, 
to give the Agent of the Great Western a call before they invest 
their money elsewhere. We will vouch for all we say to the 
public. Thej' will find many advantages in 

THE GEEAT WESTERN MUTUAL LIFE INSUEANCE CO. 
that no other Company gives to the insured. First, it is a purely 
Mutual Company; the entire surplus over the actual cost of insu- 
rance being divided equally among the assured. The stockhold- 
ers receive only seven per cent., wnile in most every other Com- 
pany the stockholders receive out of the funds that belong to the 
insured, over legal interest, from twenty to thirty per cent. This 
amount is put into the pockets to enrich the stockholders before 
dividends are paid to the policy holder. The Great Western 
issues all approved and every desirable form of policies, and all 
payments and dividends are non-forfeitable, and dividends are 
declared aniiually, and are paid in cash. No conditions what- 
ever are imposed u|)on the insured in respect to residenceor 
travel in any part of the civinzed world, and no restrictionsin 
regard to occupation are excepted as requiring the special permit 
from the Company, or the payment of an extra premium; and 
the insured are allowed thirty days grace for the payment of 
premiums. One annual paj^ment continues a policy in force two 
years, and five payments over ten years ; and if the death of the 
party occur within that time, the Company are bound by their 
charter to pay the amount of the policy the same as if there had 
been no elapse of premium. The above mentioned features, em- 
bracing every accommodation with entire security to the Com- 
pany, make 

The Great Western Mutual one of the most Liberal Life Insur- 
ance Companies in the United States. 
The facilities which it affords the uninsured are such as leave 
him no excuse for neglecting his duty to himself and family. 
Nothing hut the actual gift of a policy can exceed the advan- 
tages offered by this Company.

MODUS OPERANDI OF THE TURKISH BATH. 

The Bather enters the Reception Room, registers his name, and 
is there shown into a Dressing Room, where he disrobes, each 
bather having a separate apartment. A sheet is then provided 
for him, and he is now ready for the "Tepidarium," or warm 
room. There his head is wet with cold water, also drinks freely 
of water, and reclines or sits on a resting chair for ten or fifteen 
minutes, until the skin becomes soft and moist. He is then ready 
for the "Calidarium," or hot room, until profuse perspiration 
takes place, the head meanwhile being kept wet with cold wat£r. 
He is then taken out and shampooed bj^the attendant on a couch 
where he is manipulated, not a muscle escaping the shampooer's 
hands. That process completed, he is shampooed from head to 
foot with per.''umcd Glycerine Soap, which leaves the skin "soft 
as velvet." Then comes the Spray Bath, warm at first, then cool, 
then cold; and so gradual is the change of temperature that no 
shock Is given to the sj'stem. When the bather is sufficiently 
cooled, a hot dry sheet is thrown over him, he is ushered into the 
" Frigidarium," or cooling room. Here, reclining or sitting, he 
remains until thoroughly cool and dry, when he is ready to dress, 
a wiser, cleaner and happier man. 

THE LADIES GO THROUGH THE SAME ROUTINE. 

Non-bathers often express an alarm lest the Bath may be 
weakening. But the Bath strengthens, it never weakens. The 
Idea of weakening is suggested by the loss of fluids by perspira- 
tion; but this loss is a gain, and not a loss. The expulsion of 
watery fluids from the economy is a natural process, necessary 
to our very existence, and affects the nervous and muscular pow- 
ers of the individual beneficially.
